Birding since the late 1980s...mid 40s birder. Being out in nature and hearing the morning chorus, seeing how birds interact with their surroundings and go about their lives provides me a greater understanding of the natural environment we live in. With bird photography, every photo is different, which makes seeing the same and different species exciting.

To my great surprise, after wandering off the trail I stumbled upon my first Black Woodpecker. The extent and quality of the forest at the Zepplinheim Reserve is impressive. Sorry for the poor quality; this bird was very shy.
